SSD Kingston KC600 256GB 2.5" SATAIII

The Kingston KC600 256GB 2.5" SATAIII SSD is a high-quality solid-state drive from Kingston Technology, engineered for exceptional performance and system responsiveness. It features the latest 3D TLC NAND technology, SM2259 controller with DRAM cache, and SATA Rev. 3.0 (6 Gbit/s) interface with backward compatibility to SATA Rev. 2.0, making it versatile for desktops, laptops, and SATA-enabled devices.

Sequential read speeds reach up to 550 MB/s, write up to 500 MB/s (for 256 GB model). Maximum random 4K IOPS: up to 90,000 read and 80,000 write. This delivers incredibly fast OS boots, instant app launches, quick data transfers, and smooth multitasking. Windows loading times are dramatically reduced, programs open near-instantly, and file handling is efficient.

The 2.5" form factor with 7 mm thickness (dimensions 100.1 × 69.85 × 7 mm, weight 40 g) fits standard slots in laptops and desktops. No moving parts ensure silence, vibration resistance (operating 2.17G Peak 7–800 Hz, non-operating 20G Peak 10–2000 Hz), and shock tolerance. Power efficiency is high: 0.06 W idle, 0.2 W average, up to 1.3 W max read and 3.2 W max write—extending laptop battery life.

A standout feature is comprehensive security: XTS-AES 256-bit hardware encryption, TCG Opal 2.0 support, and eDrive (Microsoft eDrive for BitLocker), providing hardware-level data protection for sensitive or business use. The drive supports S.M.A.R.T. for health monitoring and TRIM for performance optimization.

For the 256 GB model, endurance TBW is 150 TB. Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) is 2,000,000 hours. Operating temperature 0°C ~ +70°C, storage -40°C ~ +85°C. Kingston offers a limited 5-year (60-month) warranty with free technical support (or until "SSD Life Remaining" via Kingston SSD Manager).

The drive-only package includes just the SSD (no cloning software or cables). Installation is straightforward: connect to SATA port, clone data using Windows tools, Macrium Reflect, or Acronis True Image, or perform a clean OS install. Compatible with Windows 7/8/10/11, Linux, and other SATA/AHCI OS.

The 256 GB capacity suits OS installation, core apps, documents, browsers, photos, and light software. The Kingston KC600 is a full-featured SSD for everyday and professional tasks: office, multimedia, light editing, fast loading. Kingston is renowned for reliability and quality.
